General Terms & Conditions

Scope

1.1 These business terms & conditions of UniMerch Merchandising GmbH (in the following referred to as “Seller”) apply to all contracts that a consumer or business customer (in the following referred to as “Customer”) concludes with the seller with regard to the goods and/or services that the seller offers through their online shop. A customer’s own terms & conditions are herewith explicitly rejected, unless agreed otherwise.

1.2 A consumer in the sense of these General Terms & Conditions is any natural person who concludes a legal transaction for a purpose that can neither be assigned to their commercial, nor to their independent professional activity. A business customer in the sense of these General Terms & Conditions is any natural person or legal entity or any legal partnership which at the time of concluding a legal transaction is carrying out his/her independent professional or commercial activity.

2) Conclusion of contract

2.1 The product descriptions contained in the online shop of the seller do not represent binding offers of the seller, but solely serve the purpose to enable the customer to make a binding offer to the seller.

2.2. The customer can make this offer via the online order form that is part of the online shop of the seller. For this to happen the customer, after having entered his/her personal details, is making a legally binding offer of contract for the goods or services contained in his/her shopping basket by pressing the submit button which finalises the order activation. The customer may also make this offer by faxing the order to the seller.

2.3 The seller can accept the customer’s order within two days

· by sending the customer a written or electronic order confirmation (electronic = fax or email), decisive in this is the point in time when the customer receives the order confirmation

· by delivering the ordered goods to the customer, decisive in this is the receipt of the goods by the customer

· by requesting payment from the customer once the customer’s order has been received.

If more than the aforementioned alternatives are present, the contract is concluded at the time when one of the aforementioned alternatives happens first. Does the seller not accept the customer’s offer within the aforementioned time limit, it will be deemed as a rejection of the offer with the consequence that the customer is no longer legally bound to his/her declaration of intent.

2.4 The time limit for accepting the offer starts with the day the offer was sent by the customer and ends two full days after that. Should the final day of the deadline fall onto a Saturday, Sunday or on a statutory bank holiday in the country of the seller, the deadline day shall be replaced by the next working day.

2.5 Order processing and making contact with the customer is generally effected by email as part of an automated order processing. The customer must ensure that the email address he/she has provided for order processing is correct, so that the emails sent by the seller to this address are received by the customer accordingly. The customer must in particular ensure that any SPAM filters in operation do not prohibit the customer receiving the emails sent by the seller or by third parties contracted to handle the seller’s order processing.
